The UK’s Home Office has issued a tender for a four-year service for a “drone Detect, Track, and Identify (DTI) capability is to detect, locate, track, and identify the presence of an uncrewed aerial system (UAS) (and potentially the controller), providing airspace awareness, and enabling them to take relevant action to mitigate any threats posed by the detected drone(s).”
“We are interested in different technologies, as well as multi-sensor systems,” according to the tender document. “We are interested in systems that can be deployed in fixed-locations, temporarily deployable (for example in support of major events), or mobile. We are also interested in low-cost, wide-area solutions that can help provide air picture understanding across large parts of the country.
Reponses are required by 25th June 2026.
